* @par 1) Object Definition

* };
*
* // Fill out the object operations structure
* struct nl_object_ops my_ops = {

* .oo_size = sizeof(struct my_obj),
* };

* // At this point the object can be allocated, you may want to provide a
* // separate _alloc() function to ease allocting objects of this kind.
* struct nl_object *obj = nl_object_alloc(&my_ops);
*
* // And release it again...
* nl_object_put(obj);
* @endcode
*
* @par 2) Allocating additional data
* @code
* // You may require to allocate additional data and store it inside
* // object, f.e. assuming there is a field `ptr'.
* struct my_obj {
* NLHDR_COMMON
* void * ptr;
* };
*
* // And at some point you may assign allocated data to this field:
* my_obj->ptr = calloc(1, ...);
*
* // In order to not introduce any memory leaks you have to release
* // this data again when the last reference is given back.

* };
* @endcode
*
* @par 4) Object Attributes
* @code
* // The concept of object attributes is optional but can ease the typical
* // case of objects that have optional attributes, e.g. a route may have a
* // nexthop assigned but it is not required to.
*
* // The first step to define your object specific bitmask listing all
* // attributes
* #define MY_ATTR_FOO (1<<0)

* // to mark its availability.

*
* // At any time you may use this mask to check for the availability
* // of the attribute, e.g. while dumping
* if (my_obj->ce_mask & MY_ATTR_FOO)
* nl_dump(params, "foo %d ", my_obj->foo);
*
* // One of the big advantages of this concept is that it allows for
* // standardized comparisons which make it trivial for caches to
* // identify unique objects by use of unified comparison functions.
* // In order for it to work, your object implementation must provide
* // a comparison function and define a list of attributes which
* // combined together make an object unique.
*
* static int my_obj_compare(struct nl_object *_a, struct nl_object *_b,
* uint32_t attrs, int flags)
* {
* struct my_obj *a = nl_object_priv(_a):
* struct my_obj *b = nl_object_priv(_b):
* int diff = 0;
*
* // We help ourselves in defining our own DIFF macro which will
* // call ATTR_DIFF() on both objects which will make sure to only
* // compare the attributes if required.
* #define MY_DIFF(ATTR, EXPR) ATTR_DIFF(attrs, MY_ATTR_##ATTR, a, b, EXPR)
*
* // Call our own diff macro for each attribute to build a bitmask
* // representing the attributes which mismatch.
* diff |= MY_DIFF(FOO, a->foo != b->foo)
* diff |= MY_DIFF(BAR, strcmp(a->bar, b->bar))
*
* return diff;
* }
*
* // In order to identify identical objects with differing attributes
* // you must specify the attributes required to uniquely identify
* // your object. Make sure to not include too many attributes, this
* // list is used when caches look for an old version of an object.

* ...
* .oo_id_attrs = MY_ATTR_FOO,
* .oo_compare = my_obj_compare,
